Had Jerusalem artichokes to use up and found this wonderfully indulgent @dianahenryfood recipe for Jerusalem artichoke and roast garlic soup which tastes almost truffley. Balm for the soul after a stressful 24 hours without my IPhone which chose the beginning of a lockdown weekend to die on me. Fortunately kind neighbour @rosie_somerset_lettering lent me her spare. What would we do without neighbours, eh? Still it’s embarrassing how reliant we are on our phones 🙄 Definitely advocate soup on a grey day anyway . . . #soup #jerusalemartichoke #garlic #roastgarlic #homemade #comfortfood #dianahenry #goodneighboursWe’ve been talking about Schnitzel Night for a while in one of my Zoom cooking groups and when a couple of the guys fell out @pickledmimi and I decided to do a ‘practice run’ anyway. And what a joy schnitzel is - like anything fried, really. I used pork instead of veal (from @rarebutchers) then made one of my favourite potato salads which involves hot vinegar, onion and butter with some lightly pickled cucumber on the side. We’re waiting for ya @tvsandyclarke @alanoshea13 @chefhenryeldon @ren_varsha! . . . #schnitzel #pork #escalopes #friedfood #potatosalad #pickledcucumber #homecooking #zoomcookingThis is not just a bacon chop, this is a @meatpeter sugar-pit bacon chop ... Last night’s supper (no I didn’t finish it all!) with creamed chicory from Jane Grigson’s Vegetable Book. You might query the amount of fat but, hey! No carbs! And a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do during lockdown. . . . #chop #bacon #sugarpitbacon #pork #meat #meatpeter #supper #treat #gifted #lockdowntreatsIt’s so glooomy I’m scampering out of the flat whenever I get the chance and snapping away just to remind myself the sun does occasionally shine. This was Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon being taken up by the satisfying if unphotogenic task of rearranging my kitchen cupboards and discarding an embarrassing 3 bin bags of out of date pulses, flour and spices in the process. (I haven’t attempted this for some years 😂) #lockdowntasks #lockdowntreats. . . . #trees #sun #autumncolors #fallcolors #leaves #nature #clifton #bristol #sundaymornings Follow on Instagram
